PamG (lynguy1) | 1025 comments I finished a book that I won in a GR Giveaway. Tempting The Dragon King Tempting The Dragon King (Dragon Lords, #1) by Kiersten Fay by Kiersten Fay. This is the first book in the Dragon Lords series, but it's set in the same world as the her Shadow Quest series. This meshes a few genres. It's a science fiction paranormal romantic suspense novel. While there's plenty of action and steamy scenes, there are some deeper threads that center around domestic abuse, child abuse, grief, and honor.

PattyMacDotComma Race Cars: A children's book about white privilege is an illustrated story of two cars, one black and one white, who are best friends. The "committee" keeps making the black car's race longer!

PattyMacDotComma The thriller Falling, by T.J. Newman, has attracted a lot of fans, and I can see why. It would make a terrific movie or mini-series. A terrible dilemma, lots of tension, and some good characters.

PattyMacDotComma I was delighted to enjoy watching Richard Osman's Thursday Murder Club solve the mystery of The Man Who Died Twice. It's every bit as good as their first outing, I reckon!

The Slough House series is utterly addictive, and the novels have been written as standalones.

Me, too, Kristie. 😊

I just enjoyed the tender and funny Under the Whispering Door by T.J. Klune, the story of a selfish man who uncomfortably learned about friendship, love, and life only after he died.

PattyMacDotComma I always like the Buzz Books, by Publishers Lunch, which publish the first chapters or excerpts from dozens of upcoming books and are free for anyone to download and read.

Buzz Books 2021:Fall/Winter includes selections from famous established authors and some wonderful debuts. There's also non-fiction and Young Adult. I've included a smattering of samples of a few that appeal to me.

PattyMacDotComma For such a shy kid, Andy Warhol surprisingly grew up to become a famous Pop Artist and friend of celebrities. Here's another book for kids and their grown-ups. (colourful education!)

PattyMacDotComma The Rowland Sinclair historical mystery series is terrific. He and friends travel around the world "between the wars" (WWI & WWII), chasing Nazis, dodging gangsters, mixing with the rich and famous (which Rowly is himself). Cameos: JFK, Errol Flyyn, F. Scott Fitzgerald among others.

Where There's a Will (Rowland Sinclair #10) by Sulari Gentill 5★ link to my review of Where There's a Will

Nice! I've heard a lot of good things about Norse Mythology, one of the Neil Gaiman books I don't have under my belt yet. At least from the Sandman comics, I like the way he depicts and paces mythological stories.

Woman Reading  (is away exploring) | 397 comments The Chaos Kind (John Rain, #11, Livia Lone, #3.5) by Barry Eisler
The Chaos Kind by Barry Eisler

This combines characters from his two other most popular series. As this is the first thing I've read from this author, I can easily report that it works fine as a standalone. Spies on spies action.
